Dear Ripe.net,
My contact form is being spammed on a constant basis, resulting into 5 or so
spam mails every 10 minutes. All spam mails come from IP's which are from
your company.
For example: 193.53.87.113, 193.53.87.109, and others within your range.
The error I receive is the following:
Server attack "Many URLS in a field" detected. Your server is safe as
FormMail is invulnerable to this attack. You can disable these messages by
setting ALERT_ON_ATTACK_DETECTION to false in FormMail's configuration
section.
More information:
Field "mesg" contained 30 URLs
Is there any way you can stop this spamming? I'm sure it is not you directly
doing this, but someone using these IP's is. I have blocked this kind of
attacks (but keep logs), since I have no interest in any of the 30 url's
inside the mail message.
My kindest regards,
Pieter Collier, Tolkienlibrary.com
